Chocolate is the essential Valentine's Day gift: so what better place for a getaway than Chocolatetown USA? Hershey, PA, that is, the town founded by chocolate baron Milton Hershey; today, visitors come to stay at Hotel Hershey and Hershey Lodge, and to have fun at Hersheypark theme park in summertime (Halloween and Christmas too.)
The classy and vintage Hotel Hershey is a chocoholic's heaven. Hershey bars, at check-in. Over-the-top desserts in the Circular Dining Room. The Chocolate Spa...
The Spa is wonderful not only for treatments such as Chocolate Fondue Wrap, but also for its comfy "quiet room", where guests relax before and after their appointments. It's got a fireplace, magazines, drinks, snacks; and it's comfortably co-ed, too.
And what are the kids doing, meanwhile? Well, the Cocoa Kids Club -- for ages 5 to 12 -- isn't open this time of year, but babysitting can be arranged.
A nice bonus this time of year is Chocolate-Covered February, with special fun for kids (chocolate bingo, or playdough, anyone?) and grownups too.
